Abstract

Nowadays, the Covid-19 pandemic has brought a profound impact on English language teaching (ELT). Consequently, the English language teachers had to adapt and shift to remote teaching utilizing technology quickly. This article reviews the recent studies and practices of integrating the TPACK (technological pedagogical content knowledge) framework in ELT. To this end, the previous studies and best practices of employing technology in ELT by the English language teachers before and during the Covid-19 Pandemic are reviewed and discussed based on the TPACK framework. Moreover, the studies conducted before and during the Covid-19 Pandemic are analyzed to know the consistent use of the TPACK framework in the ELT context. The analysis results inspire the future orientation of integrating the TPACT framework in the English language teaching post-Covid-19 Pandemic.
